The HulēШаблон:Okinaia National Wildlife Refuge is a National Wildlife Refuge on the island of [[Kauai|KauaШаблон:Okinai]] in [[Hawaii|HawaiШаблон:Okinai]]. It is adjacent to the Menehune Fish Pond, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, on the southeast side of the island. The HulēШаблон:Okinaia Refuge is approximately Шаблон:Convert of bottomlands and wooded slopes along the [[Huleia River|HulēШаблон:Okinaia River]]. It was established in 1973 to provide open, productive wetlands as nesting and feeding habitat for endangered Hawaiian waterbirds, including the āeШаблон:Okinao (Hawaiian stilt, Himantopus mexicanus knudseni), Шаблон:Okinaalae kea (Hawaiian coot, Fulica alai), Шаблон:Okinaalae Шаблон:Okinaula (Hawaiian gallinule, Gallinula chloropus sandvicensis), and koloa maoli (Hawaiian duck, Anas wyvilliana) can be found here.[1]

To protect and minimize disturbance to the sensitive endangered species that live there, the refuge is closed to all public access. However, shoreline access is provided just to the east at Niumalu Beach Park.[2]
